How did you prepare for the interview?

One of the successful med student recommended me to buy a book from ADMISSIONSMYSTERY.COM that proved a deciding factor for my interview.

What impressed you positively?

Campus was really nice; nice anatomy lab too. I like how students and live in dorms and roll out of bed to class, and the dorms are very cheap.

What impressed you negatively?

COST!!!!! The prison next door, I guess, but it's not too obvious.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

NYMC is actually a pretty good school. I think it's only considered back-up b/c of how much it costs. Also, there's big malls and theaters just 15 minutes away, so it's not like we're on a farm or anything.

What are your general comments?

The interview took place in a physiology professor's office. It was more like an informal discussion than like being grilled or put on the spot. I felt relaxed and it was not scary at all.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
